Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_limit: reject configurations that cause integer overflow
Reject bogus configs where internal token counter wraps around.
This only occurs with very very large requests, such as 17gbyte/s.
Its better to reject this rather than having incorrect ratelimit.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.3 < 5.15.149)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.76)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.15)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.7.3)
• linux linux kernel 6.8
